Has anyone put a triangular side folder on a Saiga 12 before?

I put the poly folder on mine. I could swap it out for the triangle and take a picture if you want.

I can't say that I'm that incredibly familiar with Saiga conversions, but what is the piece below the receiver that accepts the magazine? Is it some sort of adapter?

That's a russian magwell. It requires significant receiver mods as well as custom magazines.

I know this because I did it myself

BTW I'm very jealous of TX-Zen's S12

You shouldn't be, you have mad skills and do all your own work.

How do you like the DPH folder? Looks GTG.

Rusmilitary has them from time to time and you can usually find one or two on Gunbroker, they run about $75. For optics on an AK they make an awesome cheekweld.
